13.1  
REPORT - CHANGE TO NAME OF ENTITY ON PRIOR AWARDS OF  
PROJECT-BASED VOUCHERS FOR BURBANK AVENUE  
APARTMENTS.  
BACKGROUND: Burbank Avenue Apartments (Project) is an affordable  
housing development currently under construction located at 1780  
Burbank Avenue in Santa Rosa. The Project will have sixty-four (64)  
total units targeted to households with income levels between 20% and  
60% of Area Median Income (AMI) with one unrestricted manager’s unit.  
The Project received two separate awards of Project-Based Vouchers  
(PBVs) for a total of sixteen (16) PBVs. The Agreement to Enter Into  
Housing Assistance Contract (AHAP) became effective December 6,  
2023. Due to changes to the ownership structure of the Project that  
have occurred since the Developer submitted its applications for PBVs,  
the legal name of the entity that received the awards under previous  
Housing Authority resolutions needs to be updated.  
RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended by the Housing and  
Community Services Department that the Housing Authority, by  
resolution, change the name of the entity awarded Project-Based  
Vouchers for Burbank Avenue Apartments under Resolution No. 1707,  
dated January 25, 2021, and Resolution No.1736, dated June 20, 2022,  
from the Developer, WSA Burbank Housing Partners I, LP, to the entity  
that is the legal owner of the property, BHDC Burbank Ave, LLC.
